[icedtea-web] RFC: fix info shown in about:plugins in Firefox

[Omair Majid]

Hi,

The attached patch updates information shown by the plugin in 
about:plugins in Firefox. I am not sure how to fill in the version 
string, but then none of the plugins I have installed display a version 
string either. With the patch applied, firefox shows this:

IcedTea-Web Plugin (using IcedTea-Web 1.0pre+rab266ebf1178)
     File: IcedTeaPlugin.so
     Version:
     The IcedTea-Web Plugin executes Java applets.

Where "IcedTea-Web Plugin" in the description is a link to the 
IcedTea-Web wiki page. Without this patch, Firefox shows:

IcedTea NPR Web Browser Plugin (using IcedTea 1.0pre+rab266ebf1178)

     File: IcedTeaPlugin.so
     Version:
     The IcedTea NPR Web Browser Plugin (using IcedTea 
1.0pre+rab266ebf1178) executes Java applets.

ChangeLog:
2010-01-04  Omair Majid  <omajid at redhat.com>

     * Makefile.am (PLUGIN_VERSION): Change to IcedTea-Web
     ($(PLUGIN_DIR)/%.o): Define PLUGIN_NAME and PACKAGE_URL.
     * configure.ac (AC_INTIT): Add url.
     * plugin/icedteanp/IcedTeaNPPlugin.cc (PLUGIN_NAME): Removed.
     (PLUGIN_FULL_NAME): New definition. (PLUGIN_DESC): Add link to
     IcedTea-Web wiki page.
     (NP_GetValue): Return PLUGIN_FULL_NAME instead of PLUGIN_NAME.

Thoughts? Comments?

Cheers,
Omair
